I thought about switching to Graphene a while back but asked a question about this in another thread. As tempting as it was, it seemed like the entire project hinged on Google updating AOSP. Stopping that to fuck over Graphene is exactly the type of piece of shit asshole behavior I would expect from Google.
Come on Linux phone devs. I’m rooting for ya.
Need more Mighty Cats.
We all are, but it’s going to be a long time and my concern is that it won’t be soon enough. It was convenient that Windows finally crossed the enshittification Rubicon just as Linux was ready for mainstream adoption. But mobile Linux is far, far, behind anything else. Although I do think that immutability and flatpaks are a good foundation.
This project seems to be promising: https://mecha.so/
Hopefully they can get LTE working on it so it can become a viable alternative to a smartphone.
is it possible or plausible for grapheneos to just simply fork android officially and break control from google?
In a way they already do. The trouble is that most big companies want the Google name and PlayStore.
It’s entirely possible but would require a massive increase in volunteer manpower just to keep up.
